Answer:

a

Explanation:

Opportunity costs refers to the options that are lost when making a choice between many options. According to my research on opportunity costs in different situations, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the opportunity cost of this exchange the total value of the television, headphones, and bicycle. This is because by choosing the printer he is ultimately losing out on the opportunity of choosing any of the other three items.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

INCREASE the consumption of Pepsi and REDUCE the consumption of Hamburger

Explanation:

Based on the information given we were told that Bill uses his whole budget to purchase the following :

5 cans of Pepsi

3 Hamburgers per week

And the following were the price:

Pepsi costs $1 per can

Hamburger cost $2

Bill marginal utility:

Pepsi 4

Hamburgers 6

Based on the above details this means that Bill could increase his utility by INCREASING Pepsi consumption and REDUCING hamburger consumption reason been that 5 cans of Pepsi costs $1 per can which will gives us income of $5 ($5×1) while 3 Hamburgers per week cost $2 which will give us income of $6 ($3×2) which typically means that the Hamburgers has more income that Pepsi.

Secondly since the marginal utility for Pepsi is 4 while that of Hamburgers is 6 which means that Hamburgers has higher MARGINAL UTILITY than that of Pepsi because the consumption of Hamburgers is higher than the consumption of Pepsi.

Therefore the best thing that Bill could do in order to increase his Pepsi utility is for Bill to increase Pepsi consumption and reduce hamburger consumption.

Answer: $2,398.55

Explanation:

The deposit at the end of year one would have been compounded by 2 years at the end of year 3. The second year deposit would have compounded by 1 year and the third year deposit would not have compounded at all.

The future value at the end of 3 years is;

= (500 * ( 1 + 11%)²) + (750 * ( 1 + 11%)) + 950

= $2,398.55
